Activation Lock
Good day,
I bought an iPhone, but this iPhone has an activation lock and I myself have no idea how to bypass it. Because who the iPhone belonged to before is unknown.
So I wanted to ask what I can do to bypass the activation lock.

You appear to be encountering the Activation Lock for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support feature, related to iCloud - Find My - Apple . Activation Lock is designed to prevent anyone else from using an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch if it's ever lost or stolen. Deactivation requires knowing the Apple ID and password that set the feature, or by placing a special request to Apple to reset the device. This Apple ID information essentially defines the current ownership of the device.

If you do not know the required information, are not the owner, or do not have Apple accepted proof of purchase, get the owner of the account to remove the lock (the section: "If you no longer have your iPhone or iPad" in: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support ), or return the device for a refund, or recycle the device. The device is otherwise useless to you. If the owner is unknown and has not provided contact information as a message showing in the login screen, there is no way to contact the owner unless the person who gave you the device knows them.
